Activision gets jealous of Telltales Walking Dead cash, is making an FPS for some reason.

The last game these guys made was Star Wars kinect.
I hope this has a dance central rip off too.
No place is truly safe for Daryl.
Activision aren't known for subtle gameplay. I'm expecting broken stealth segments.
Telltale have concentrated on survival so that the gore has a bigger impact. This will be the 2 roughest characters being 'awesome'.
Will we get to saw our hand off in this game too? :v:
[QUOTE=The Calzone;36652933]Wait, Daryl and Merle? The two incredibly racist redneck assholes that pretty much only existed for the audience to hate?

Daryl's a cool dude with a crossbow that takes matters into his own hands and doesn't afraid of anything, with a bit of redneck on the side
ahahah oh god that trailer was terrible
If anything I'd like a game that was based on the graphic novels/comics, which I believe Telltale went for? Well, at least the style.

Sounds about right for the Call of Duty crowd, actually.
Also as an Atlanta resident I personally cannot wait to see how they manage to fuck up what the city actually looks like.[/QUOTE]
you aren't supposed to hate Daryl, in fact you're supposed to like him...Merle on the other hand...
The description makes it sound good. But it probably wont.
Being a huge fan of the series, Telltale's games and the comic, I have a feeling this won't be the game for me. Not that I won't give it a chance but just that good stories and well written characters take time to make, and Activision will be pushing for an early release date.
Is "make an FPS" the answer to everything at Activision nowadays?

Of the 8 games they have announced for release this year there is two first person shooters and one third person shooter.
So no.
Just watch: It'll run on the IW engine and will still have animations from Call of Duty 4.
Not going to give two shits until they release some gameplay details or footage.
[QUOTE=Necrotic Fever;36653009]It's probably their most successful game ever.[/QUOTE]
And rightfully deserved so. It's an amazing game which combines storytelling with innovative gameplay. Sadly I dont think a fps will do so well for The Walking Dead. Its more about a realistic scenario if a group tried to survive a zombie apocalypse. And the crucial choices you make. Not how many zombie heads you can explode to pieces.
I don't mind, as long as they let me crawl into the tank like the first season I'll be happy

the tank is in atlanta, and the game is about his journey to atlanta.
also daryl was with the other survivors at camp when rick was in the tank, so there isn't really a reason to get into it unless someone can start it up.
am i the only one who is slightly excited about this?
Wait you play as racists?
[QUOTE=ColossalSoft;36657191]Wait you play as racists?[/QUOTE]
daryl hasn't shown a fraction of his brother's characteristics(other than being real good at killing zombies), and his actions appear to differ from his brother's greatly.
i don't ACTUALLY know that merle dickson wouldn't risk his life for days looking for a little girl that is probably dead, but do you suggest that he would?

I see what you did there.
you know, if this was done right, [sp]let's face it, Activision can't do anything right[/sp] this could be a half decent game
um how are they jealous? because they're making a zombie game similar to Telltale?
[QUOTE=Liem;36657255]you know, if this was done right, [sp]let's face it, Activision can't do anything right[/sp] this could be a half decent game[/QUOTE]
if it was done right it would be a good game, since games are meant to be enjoyed in some way, any game "done right" wouldn't be "half decent"
i think spoiler tags should be reserved for spoilers instead of pandering jokes

no, "because the other company made money off it and since activision is an EVIL MACHINE that is their PRIMARY INTIATIVE".
sensationalist headlines
Has Kirkman even given Activision the go ahead to make a Walking Dead video game?
[QUOTE=Raidyr;36655314]Of the 8 games they have announced for release this year there is two first person shooters and one third person shooter.
So no.[/QUOTE]
What the hell? your not allowed to think in a thread about Activision and use your brain, get out of here!
How to play this game before it's released: Open dayZ, name self Daryl Dickson, find crossbow.

how to idiotically judge a game before it's released and because activision published it: ask angrychair, professional idiot

Yeah but when he got into the tank [sp]you got a radio call from the Asian who tells you to meet up with him (?)[/sp] so it's kinda needed

Well, Daryl was already at the camp when that happened. And Glenn went into Atlanta [I]after[/I] Daryl and Merle hooked up with the group. So there's still no real reason to get in the tank. Although it wouldn't be unfeasible for Daryl to encounter Glenn in Atlanta, as [sp]at the end of episode 1 of TellTale's Walking Dead game, he heads off for Atlanta.[/sp]
[QUOTE=fekedout;36652265]it wont be done right and it will make the series look bad[/QUOTE]
well the series is pretty bad already
all the characters are frustratingly stupid and none of them are likable and their drama is very poorly written and uninteresting
